This is a crazy street. Even though there are crosswalks, motorist don’t respect them. Too bad someone had to get hit by a car. APD would clean up on tickets if they put an officer at the crosswalks and waited for violators. Most of the traffic that passes through here comes from the bridge down wilbur. I bet if they checked the video they would find a grey mini van crossing over 10 mins before the assault.
